Most of us made many mistakes on our way to becoming guinea slaves. Now thanks to sites like this one the correct information is more readily available and there are a lot more happy spoiled piggies out there. ;)

Well I came to realise outside and plastic was a mistake but least I didn't buy the smallest hutch but went for the Mr Snuggles rabbit hutch at 46 inches. It seemed so huge at the beginning and they were so little and so cute.

I named them after their characters..the temporary name of Greedy Pig was immediately obvious and quickly permanent. On her first vet visit I was still calling the other Blackie....as she was harder to get to know as very nervous, but I decided on Scoot as she scooted out of sight as soon as she saw you.

This photo was taken in June 2002.

And this one at the end of August so you can see their size compared to the dishes

Now everything has been bought for a reason, and the biggest reason was always ...would it fit in the car?.

At least twice a year we go to Scotland to see my folks so I had to be able to easily move pigs and their stuff to whoever was looking after them while we were away.

Mr Snuggles hutch did just fit in my Ford Escourt and was light so easily carried when taking pigs to holiday homes.

But now I have a Fiesta.

This is from this morning from our Cornish holiday. Two cages, correx sunshade, pig junk, houses, hay, sawdust, separator grids.The pigs were in a triple decker on the front seat but I was too stressed to remember to photo them. Just as well it was only me and them as there would have been no room for OH.
